Chapter 266 Cleansing Gotham
After dealing with Bain, Li Muyang did not make any further moves.
The people of Gotham and the police are one family, united and working together! With their own strength, they have protected the stability and peace of Gotham!
Well, although Li Muyang scared many people into surrendering, there were always some who managed to slip away unnoticed. Moreover, there were still some lost territories that had not been recovered, and several high-ranking officials and dignitaries who were taken hostage were still being held in the government building.
At least on the surface, the greatest credit for this achievement was given to the people of Gotham.
Anyway, Li Muyang didn't care about that. Before this, he had always been a doctor in the rear. Before he took action to deal with Bane, most people in Gotham thought that this seemingly kind young man was just a doctor with superb medical skills.
Who would have thought that when they started fighting, it was terrifying!
Ultimately, Li Muyang often said that as a doctor, he disliked killing and even more so, war, but he was by no means afraid of killing or war. If the enemy insisted on trying, then "Those skilled in medicine in ancient times, the best healed the country, the middle-class healed people, and the worst healed diseases!"
Perfect, none of them are a problem for Li Muyang!
They come, the security!
Now that you are here, let’s be buried here!
A gentleman who lacks dignity will not command respect!
A gentleman acts decisively, otherwise he cannot establish authority!
Batman and his team were quite satisfied with the ending!
Aside from the fact that a lot of people died, which made Batman feel a little guilty, it didn't have a big impact. He also witnessed the power of the people. Besides, what war doesn't involve death? Batman could understand that. Although it didn't make him doubt his past actions, Batman was also reflecting on whether he could learn to slow down a bit.
It's not a problem to treat Gotham with a different approach.
As planned, things have now settled down at Wayne Enterprises, and it's time to give Gotham another physical purge!
Yes, in a physical sense.
Bane's downfall was so swift that the Court of Owls had no chance to react. Seeing the situation was dire, Talia immediately led her people away from Gotham, while Bruce Wayne remained standing!
Only the world where Bane is injured has been achieved.
Therefore, he finally had time to implement the plan that Li Muyang had proposed earlier!
After three days and three nights of torrential rain, in addition to Wayne Group's artificial rainmaking by launching rainmaking materials, Li Muyang also used the power of heaven and earth to induce rainfall.
I guess you could say I impersonated the Dragon King for a bit.
The massive rainstorm served several purposes: first, it gave the people who had just fought a major battle a chance to calm down and return to their daily lives; second, it reduced the cumulus clouds in Gotham's sky; and finally, it cleaned away the stains caused by the battle in various corners of Gotham City during this period.
After the torrential rain subsided, people began to emerge from their homes. A rare ray of sunlight pierced through the clouds and fell upon the ancient city of Gotham. Soon, countless golden rays descended from the sky. After being washed by the rain, Gotham seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist, and a magnificent rainbow appeared in the sky.
Watching the muddy water roll into the dilapidated sewer under his feet, Li Muyang wondered if the sewer would ever get clogged. It was so dirty! He added, "Just a quick note: keep an eye on it and make sure it's maintained. It wasn't used much before, but now, thanks to Li Muyang's suggestion, Bruce has decided to create artificial rain every so often if the cloud cover in Gotham is too thick and it's not raining."
The scene, as if everything was coming back to life, brought an unprecedented experience to the people of Gotham, a feeling of seeing the sun after the clouds had parted and breaking through the darkness to see the light again.
Only then was Li Muyang's mission considered complete.
Taking a deep breath, Li Muyang said to Bruce beside him, "Uncle Wayne, we should go home now. See you again sometime. You can contact me anytime if you have any trouble."
Bruce Wayne nodded: "Not staying a little longer?"
Li Muyang shrugged with a wry smile: "I've been here for almost half a month. I have other things to take care of, so I can't keep them waiting too long."
Seeing this, Bruce Wayne exchanged a few polite words. He wasn't in a particular hurry, as there was still some time to get together. Li Muyang and the others would prepare to return to China early the next morning.
Regardless, Bruce and his team were quite grateful to Li Muyang and his group. After all, what happened in Gotham had nothing to do with Li and his team, yet Li had indeed brought a different perspective to Gotham and helped them! Everyone remembered this kindness.
Even Liu Dawei... he was only beaten up by Bane. In reality, he took care of the other villains, such as the Frozen Man and a few others with special abilities. That's why Li Muyang didn't see them.
Liu Dawei's cooking is also relative.
Afterwards, Li Muyang had another private conversation with Bruce Wayne.
"Uncle, I have a cultivation method here. I wonder if you'd be interested?" Li Muyang said with a smile, trying to sell it to them.
Bruce frowned upon hearing this, then decisively shook his head: "No, thank you."
Upon seeing this attitude, Li Muyang knew what Bruce was worried about: that he would lose his true self once he possessed extraordinary power. With his abilities, once he started to go crazy and turn evil, there would be very few who could stop him.
Li Muyang calmly advised, "Uncle, I know why you resist superpowers. It's because you think they're an external force, right? They're not human power! That's why you're afraid of their destructive power! You're worried they'll get out of control!"
Bruce was taken aback. "Really?"
Upon closer reflection, it seems to make sense?
Besides worrying about losing control of his superpowers, he was also concerned that if his superpowers were too powerful, the damage they would cause would be unprecedented. This was the reason for his apprehension.
“However, nothing is stagnant or unchanging!” Li Muyang continued to persuade, “Your concerns are not unreasonable, but you can’t reject power outright just because you fear its destructive potential. That’s no different from being unwilling to develop technology because you fear the harm it can cause!”
"Besides, isn't the threat posed by powerful technology no different from that of superpowers?"
Bruce pondered for a long time, then asked in a low voice, "Mu Yang, what exactly do you mean?"
Li Muyang sighed deeply: "Uncle, do you know? This world is very dangerous. In a sense, it's like we're facing a major disaster!"
Subsequently, Li Muyang revealed some of the secrets of the world that he knew, mainly concerning the existence of external enemies.
It's mainly about aliens and enemies from other dimensions.
"Humanity must become stronger; it's impossible for a few people to protect the planet." Li Muyang said earnestly, "I know you're very intelligent, but human strength has its limits! What if one day a large-scale invasion by foreign enemies happens in the future? What if we can't defeat them with our current strength?"
“So…” Bruce said thoughtfully.
“Therefore, we must strive to improve ourselves!” Li Muyang said decisively. “Uncle, why don’t you listen to this first and understand the specifics of the abilities I’m about to impart to you before making a judgment?”
Bruce didn't hesitate this time and nodded. Even if he still didn't want to cultivate, at least he could learn about Li Muyang's abilities, right?
But after Li Muyang finished speaking, Bruce looked at him with a strange expression.
"Are you... really not just using the settings of anime to fool me?"
Yes, what Li Muyang was talking about was actually a body double.
Speechless, Li Muyang covered his face. He knew Bruce would react this way, so he could only patiently explain again, assuring him that this was an ability he had created himself! It had nothing to do with that angular, quirky world!
Most importantly, this substitute of mine has the requirement and effect of training one's mind! It is generated by the resonance of one's own life and soul! It originates from a hidden power within humanity itself!
"Aren't you afraid of losing control of your abilities? To be honest, Uncle Wayne, you really should learn about our Chinese cultivation system! Although we have the spiritual energy shielding device as a limiting technology, its effect is not absolute. Besides, look at all our cultivators, how many of them have lost control of their abilities?"
The last sentence plunged Bruce Wayne into embarrassment and deep thought. Yes, he viewed superpowers like wolves and tigers, but in China, with such a massive population practicing superpowers, there hadn't been any cases of powers going out of control! Even if there were, they were only occasional isolated incidents!
"The situation in China is different from that abroad. I know we can't generalize. We should look at things dialectically. But you must understand the principle of taking the essence and discarding the dross, right, Uncle?"
After Li Muyang's relentless questioning, Bruce Wayne softened somewhat, mainly because he wanted to study this ability and see what kind of effect it would have.
Li Muyang didn't expect to convince him in one go. The old man's level of fear of superpowers was too high. In his eyes, all extraordinary abilities were actually just a kind of opportunistic luck. It can only be said that he was still too ignorant.
Perhaps Batman is indeed very intelligent and well-read, but his understanding of Chinese thought culture is not deep enough; he has only scratched the surface.
Therefore, Bruce decided to first find a few guinea pigs... cough cough, let a few of his friends try it out first!
For example, Catwoman, Commissioner Gordon, Robin, Barbara...
When the others learned of this, they looked at Li Muyang and Bruce with strange eyes. Were you two planning to use us as guinea pigs?
"What? My company's manager, Ms. Mingmei, also cultivated this ability that I helped her awaken. If it's going to be an experiment, why would it be your turn?" Li Muyang shrugged speechlessly. It can only be said that Batman's glorious image has already deeply penetrated people's hearts.
Bruce touched his nose, feeling rather speechless. Everyone around him knew that he was extremely resistant to superpowers, to the point of being almost prejudiced. He couldn't explain it because it was a fact.
It wasn't convenient to start with just a few people, so Li Muyang had no choice but to bring in Liu Dawei as the first person!
Don't worry, it won't hurt. Take a deep breath.
